It’s also rewarding – sometimes financially, but always in morale. The best part? You don’t need to keep up with the Joneses of SEO if you don’t run a business. Other than knowing a few basics about website safety, you just need to be you.

Even if you think you have nothing unique to say, chances are that you do. Here are 20 quick ideas to help you get started:

Twitter might be an unexpected place to market your business. But it can make a huge impact. Using Twitter to market your business is not only important in the digital media world of today, but it's a fun and interactive way to connect with your customers. One of the many great things about Twitter is that it's easy to set up, manage, and use. Don't think of using Twitter as “another thing to do.” Instead think of it as simply a conversation that you're engaging in with other like-minded people who you'd want to talk with anyway. This conversation can boost your profits and help your business. Talk about friends with benefits!

These days, pretty much everyone is walking around with the Internet in his or her pockets. With the rise of the smartphone came the rise of the mobile web. An 87-page Morgan Stanley report from 2010 predicted that by 2015 more people will be viewing internet sites on mobile web browsers than on computer browsers.

Thanks to daily deal sites, the days of being a coupon-clipper no longer means you're some cheapskate who gets excited over a 25-cent-off coupon for toilet paper. After all, coupons were never thought of as cool until Groupon and Living Social came around (if you can remember that far back).

We all know someone who still clips good old-fashioned coupons. But you'd be hard-pressed to find someone today who doesn't once in awhile clip some virtual coupons.

Who doesn't love shopping online? With a few points and clicks, your stuff shows up on your stoop a few days later. Buying products online that you know everything about or have used before is one thing. But what about when you're buying something you've never seen in real life before? All you have to go on are the pictures and any other product information that the website chooses to provide. In the world of online shopping, your product page can exude the essence of your brand. And it can often make or break a sale.

You determined that you want to regularly create content. Now where do you place it? According to a Jakob Nielsen study, most people don't like to scroll. In fact, the study found that only 23% of first-time visitors and only 16% of second-time visitors to a website are willing to scroll. The other 77% of visitors just look at what they're able to see above the fold (that's the area of the page that's visible without needing to scroll down) and judge the quality and usability of the website based on what they see there. Even though some people believe this is a myth, positioning your content in the best way possible just makes sense.
